Close Call

Whew!

The worst possible scenario nearly played out on the court in Chicago Friday night. The Eastern Conference Champion Sun found themselves trailing the expansion Sky with under a minute to play.

That's where Connecticut's experience and leadership comes into play. Taj McWilliams-Franklin scored a key bucket and the Sun nailed four free-throws to secure the win.

These are the games that really build additional character, especially for the players who haven't been in the league too long.
